What to wear?! {Pewaukee Waukesha County WI newborn and family portrait photographer}

What to wear...what to wear...Once your session is booked, start planning your outfits. Nothing worse than getting outfits together last minute and disliking the images because the outfits are bad. Here are a few things I think about when choosing what to wear.

-Avoid pieces of clothing that exactly match. You want to pick a few colors to coordinate together. If you're planning on the same color tops for everyone, add in some pops of color with earrings, scarves, hats, tights, etc. Here are some color palette ideas for outfits.

-Don't be afraid of patterns and texture. Not every person in the photo should be in plaid or stripes- nothing wild! I think adding lace or stripes or a floral pattern to the group gives the photo some interest. And it's cute!!

-Avoid character shirts. SUPER distracting! Leave those shirts for school or play time.

-What colors do you have in your home? If you plan on hanging color photos, you may want to choose colors that compliment your decor.
